Our goal

My mother passed away October 5th and one of her passions and where she invested her money was in education. She was a CPA in Arkansas when there were very few women in the field. At her University, she was the only female in her Accounting classes, prompting others to ask her if she was in the right place. She was a determined woman who graduated cum laude from Henderson State University while raising 2 children. She subsequently passed the CPA exam on her first try. I can't think of a better way to memorialize her than to set up a memorial scholarship fund in her name.

This is a memorial for my mother. She was an amazing accountant and a generous woman. I would love to support another amazing woman who is an aspiring accountant and hopefully CPA.
